An investigation of allosteric mechanisms in biotin protein ligases using integrated biophysical approaches
(2019)
Allostery is a biological process in which action, often ligand binding, at one site of the protein alters the function at another site. It provides a mechanism for modulating protein functions in a variety of cellular ...
HIGH-THROUGHPUT SEQUENCING CHARACTERIZATION OF DNA CYCLIZATION, WITH APPLICATIONS TO DNA LOOPING
(2019)
DNA flexibility is important both for fundamental biophysics and because DNA flexibility affects DNA packaging and regulation of gene expression through DNA looping. DNA flexibility has been studied with experiments ranging ...
PROTEIN FOLD SWITCHING: INVESTIGATING THE MECHANISM OF αβ-PLAIT TO 3α FOLD INTERCONVERSION
(2019)
Naturally occurring metamorphic proteins have the ability to interconvert from one folded state to another through either a limited set of mutations or by way of a change in the local environment. However, the design of ...
